Have you ever wondered if you should still visit your person with dementia even if they don’t always recognize you?

Even though your loved one may not know your name or your connection to them any longer, they can still sense that you’re an important person in their life. Their eyes can still light up, and they can feel emotions like love.

That’s important, because they’re not experiencing physical touch or emotional connection as often as when they were living with their family.

So when you visit them, you’re still able to love on them and create feelings of warmth and connection. That’s what they need to be able to stay happy and healthy throughout their illness:

It can be frightening when you notice your older adult begin to show signs of cognitive impairment, such as judgment problems or memory loss. If they start behaving strangely, the first thought that often comes to mind is whether this might be the onset of Alzheimer’s disease or dementia.

Rather than become paralyzed with fear of the unknown, it’s best to directly address your questions and fears. Below are five reasons why your senior’s quality of life can be significantly improved by having a complete medical exam and getting a proper symptom diagnosis early on:
